Goat Island repairs

Goat Island Road, which was severely damaged during weather events earlier this year, is expected to be repaired by the end of next month.

Downer NZ has carried out a detailed investigation, and geotechnical investigations and design work has started. In the meantime, temporary remedial work is scheduled to happen this month.

Currently there is a one lane system working.

The temporary remedial works will allow two lanes of traffic to be re-established, but during the permanent works, traffic will revert to one lane at all times.

The cost of the project is still being determined.
